Love's Redemption (Chris and Maddie)

Chapter 191

I remembered what I had wanted to ask Brandon yesterday. "Did they bother you again?"

As I asked, I instinctively looked at his hands and face. Fortunately, there weren't any injuries.

Brandon seemed to understand my concern. "No. Even if they did, they wouldn't be a match for me."

Such confidence.

After finishing the last sip of the soup. I asked, "Have you found out anything about your father's car accident? Who was behind it? They gave you such a deadly threat." Brandon looked at me. "They're afraid that I'll uncover the truth behind the death of my father's boss."

Brandon left his words half-said without further explanations. I had to keep asking. "Is your father's boss someone important? Does his death affect anyone's interests?" "He died over a decade ago. It's not about interest. They fear the resentment of his children."

I tensed inexplicably at Brandon's words.

"Does he have children? Have you met them? Do they agree with your investigation?" I bombarded him with questions.

Brandon lowered his gaze and avoided my eyes. "She doesn't know."

I was at a loss for words. After a moment, I asked, "Will you continue investigating?"
